Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2Benign:1
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
This missense variant replaces threonine with isoleucine at codon 1834 of the BRCA1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A functional study found that this variant has a neutral effect in a haploid cell proliferation assay (PMID: 30219179). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 24356096). This variant has been identified in 2/251252 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Each variant was annotated with functional scores from MAVE data which was translated into functional evidence codes. All other evidence codes and combining criteria were adhered to as closely as possible based on the ClinGen VCEP (Variant Curation Expert Panel) gene-specific recommendations. See Supplemental Figure 34 of final paper (Supp Fig. 28 in preprint: doi:10.1101/2024.04.11.24305690) for a table to see which lines of evidence we did not have data for. The ClinGen VCEPs are highly regarded as the gold-standard for gene-specific variant curation and are developed after extensive evaluation of the evidence by clinical and scientific experts for the particular gene to classify genomic variants on a spectrum from pathogenic to benign using the 2015 ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines as a backbone (PMID: 25741868). Reclassification of these VUS variants from gnomAD or All of Us focused only on variants originally prescribed as VUS in ClinVar. To ensure reproducibility, transparency, and increased throughput, all the procedures for annotating variants and assigning evidence codes were codified using Python. All code has been made freely available and is linked in the Code Availability section and all reclassified variants with evidence codes used can be found in Tables S18-19 (preprint: doi:10.1101/2024.04.11.24305690). For the MAVE data, the clinical curation and clinical strength assignment as per the ClinGen recommendations in Brnich et al. (2020) (PMID: 31892348) for or against pathogenicity or benignity of each of these MAVE datasets utilized in this study were previously published in Fayer et al. (2021) (PMID: 34793697).In brief, for BRCA1 variants, if a variant was categorized as FUNC (functional), it was assigned BS3 evidence and no PS3 evidence, whereas if it was categorized as LOF (loss of function), the variant was assigned PS3 evidence and no BS3 evidence. Variants categorized as INT (intermediate) were left unannotated. For the BRCA1 combining criteria, greater than or equal to 1 criteria of strong benign evidence was enough to reclassify the VUS as Likely Benign. This variant GRCh38:17:43045769:G>A was assigned evidence codes ['BS3'] and an overall classification of Likely benign -

not provided Uncertain:2
Published functional studies demonstrate no damaging effect: classified as functional based on a cell survival assay (Findlay et al., 2018); Observed in individuals undergoing multi-gene panel testing due to a personal and/or family history of cancer (Li et al., 2020); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Also known as 5620C>T; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30209399, 31853058, 27742776, 24356096, 25348405, 29884841, 32377563) -
The BRCA1 c.5501C>T (p.Thr1834Ile) variant has been reported in the published literature in an individual undergoing multigene panel testing (PMID: 31853058 (2020)). This variant has also been reported as a somatic variant in an individual with triple negative breast cancer (PMID: 24356096 (2014)). One study showed this variant apparently retained functional activity in a large-scale study using a haploid cell line (PMID: 30209399 (2018)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000008 (2/251252 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Variant summary: BRCA1 c.5501C>T (p.Thr1834Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the BRCT domain (IPR001357) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251252 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.5501C>T in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome has been reported. At least one functional study reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and showed no damaging effect of this variant on homology directed repair (HDR) activity (Findlay_2018). HDR assays qualify as a recognized gold standard on the basis of updated guidance provided by the ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation (SVI) working group (Tavtigian_2018). The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30209399). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182171). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1834 of the BRCA1 protein (p.Thr1834Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs730881500, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182171). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (PMID: 30209399) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA1 function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BRCA1 function (PMID: 30209399). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
